QAQC Engineer; tapping

Talent Acquisition Specialist | Compensation & Benefits I SPHRi Student

Euro Mechanical is looking for an experienced QA/QC Engineer to take overall responsibility for QA/QC operations across sites, shutdowns, and turnarounds. The ideal candidate will be hands‑on, client‑facing, and confident in leading inspection teams across welding, NDT coordination, valve refurbishment, hot tapping, and leak sealing activities.

• Lead and guide a team of QC Inspectors, managing day‑to‑day QA/QC activities on site.
• Coordinate inspections with Client and Third‑Party Inspectors, ensuring all requirements are met.
• Review project details and ensure inspection readiness (ITPs, drawings, specs, required documentation).
• Inspect fit‑up, joint clearance, and material traceability on spools/vessels; verify traceability marking is maintained.
• Ensure welding compliance: correct WPS usage, verify welding parameters, and perform visual & dimensional inspection (including tie‑in points).
• Manage NDT/QA records: spool marking for RT/NDT, witness repair welds, prepare NDT requests, update weld control records, PMI operation, and review documents prior to client inspection.
• Inspect incoming valves for material verification, casting quality, and dimensional conformity.
• Verify refurbishment activities: dismantling, cleaning, machining, lapping, and reassembly.
• Inspect critical components including seats, discs, stems, and body/bonnet joints.
• Witness/verify torqueing, alignment, and functional/pressure tests (hydrostatic, pneumatic, leak) as per standards.
• Ensure calibration and correct use of testing equipment (gauges, test benches, torque tools).
• Review and finalize refurbishment reports, valve test certificates, and ensure compliance with Qatar Energy/Client requirements (including overhaul & Trevi testing) before submission.

• Review and verify hot tap / in‑service welding procedures, method statements, and risk assessments.
• Inspect hot tap fittings (split tees, welding sleeves) and ensure compliance with project specifications.
• Monitor hot tapping welding to ensure qualified WPS compliance and controlled heat input.
• Inspect installation of hot tap equipment (tapping machines, cutters, adapters, sealing elements) and verify alignment/fit‑up (reinforcement pads, branch connections).
• Witness pressure/leak testing and integrity checks prior to tapping operations.
• Confirm prerequisites and documentation: permits, isolation, barricading, safety controls, QA/QC checkpoints, and vendor tool readiness/calibration.

• Review and verify leak sealing procedures/method statements/risk assessments in line with ASME PCC‑2 and client requirements.
• Inspect sealing compounds, clamps, and injection fittings for compliance with approved materials/standards.
• Verify calibration and readiness of injection pumps, pressure gauges, and monitoring instruments.
• Validate pipe integrity and operating conditions (pressure/temperature) prior to execution.
• Witness clamp installation and confirm injection fitting alignment/fit‑up; monitor compound injection with controlled pressure/volume.
• Confirm sealing integrity via leak test/verification (pressure monitoring/UT, etc.), maintain QA/QC records (calibration certificates & reports), and ensure Qatar Energy/Client + HSE compliance (PTW, isolation, barricading).

• Minimum 5 years experience in valve inspection and minimum 2 years in hot tap / in‑service operation inspection (site experience is an advantage)
• Diploma / Degree in Mechanical Engineering
• CSWIP 3.1 (minimum) | CSWIP 3.2.2 (preferred)
• Painting Certification – BGAS G2 (advantage)
• ISO / API certifications (advantage)
• Knowledge of international codes like ASME, AWS, ASME Sec IX, API 1104, PCC‑1, PCC‑2
